[vfio-users] IGD pass through, black screen, block on running option rom in seabios

BTW, in ubuntu 18.04, if run level is set to 3 (no GUI), no DMAR errors
found in dmesg when virsh create a vm with igd passthrough.
dmesg only output two lines:
[   62.601026] L1TF CPU bug present and SMT on, data leak possible. See
CVE-2018-3646 and
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/l1tf.html for details.
[   63.002568] pmd_set_huge: Cannot satisfy [mem 0xb7c00000-0xb7e00000]
with a huge-page mapping due to MTRR override.

I found an related option of qemu-system-x86_64:
igd-passthru=on|off controls IGD GFX passthrough support (default=off)
but nothing changes when set it to on.
